I remember reading about one of these years ago - they are reputed to do the 0-60 dash in 6.9s I believe.

Any pics (cant afford to buy, but would like to have a look)

Will try and put some pics up.Moto-Builds one(which was same spec as mine)did the 60 dash in 6.53s and the 1/4 mile dash in 14.53s all tested by fastcar.The 1/4 mile time seems a little quick but apart from that all quite impressive for a metro.

For the money you can have a car that could potentially trouble civic type R's etc due to the metro having such low down grunt.If you haven't driven a 1.8 metro you have to have a try.A very impressive conversion.
Cheers RickyD:-)

I had a modded 1.4 multi-point (not single) injected car on a H plate (so I lost the cat!), and that was r/roaded at an astonishing 129BHP!

I miss that car, it was f**king brilliant. All the very best of luck with the sale mate!

Highly underated fun...................
